What We Ship

The Benefits of Bare Root Plants

Bare root plants are shipped without soil or pots, making them lightweight and easy to handle. They arrive dormant, ready to be planted and thrive as beautiful, healthy additions to your garden.

Cost-Effective

With no heavy pots or soil, you'll save 50-60% on shipping costs, and you can easily plant our plants yourself—no equipment needed, just a spade for digging small holes.

Hassle-Free

Bare root plants are hassle-free because they're lightweight, easy to handle, and require minimal packaging. They establish quickly, saving you time and effort in planting and maintenance.

Better Growth

Bareroot dormant plants are more hardy because they adapt better to new environments, with stronger root systems that establish quickly, leading to greater resilience and improved survival rates in various conditions.

Eco-Friendly

Bare root native plants are environmentally friendly because they promote biodiversity, require less water and maintenance, and support local ecosystems, making them a sustainable choice for eco-conscious gardening

Caring Tips

How do I care for my Pawpaw Tree?

Each box contains detailed care instructions and information about your product. But here's the basics.

Care Tips

Pawpaw trees thrive in well-drained, rich soil. Water regularly, particularly during dry periods, and mulch to retain moisture. Prune in late winter to shape and release any dead wood. Protect from pests and diseases to ensure healthy fruit development.

Light Requirements

Pawpaw trees flourish in complete sun to partial shade. Ideally, they should receive 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily, but they can also grow well in dappled shade, especially in hotter climates where some afternoon shade helps prevent leaf scorch.

My pawpaw trees arrived in good shape. They looked very good, with good root systems. I was under the weather, so my brother-in-law set them out for me. They immediately leafed out and started growing. It looked like they were set too deep, so this winter, I will get some of the soil off while they are dormant. In my state, pawpaws only get 3-4 feet tall and the fruit is small ,so I am looking forward to some large fruit. Thank you.
